What’s it like visiting Switzerland as a young Swiss who lives abroad? Here are some impressions from youth at recent camps run by the Organisation of the Swiss Abroad. Around 130 young people were in Switzerland to take part in camps ahead of the 100th anniversary of the Organisation of the Swiss Abroad. Some of them have never lived in the country, and neither has their Swiss parent, or parents. Joining a Swiss abroad summer camp is a way in to the psyche of Switzerland. The young campers visited the different language regions of the country, as well as areas of cultural and historical significance, to find out about everyday life there. In this video, one group shows how they have learned to survive out in the wild. — swissinfo.ch is the international branch of the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation (SBC).
